The cam followers are best put back in the same location/hole as there may be matching wear patterns on the cam and follower.
Don't worry if they don't go back in the same location/hole.
What you will need to do is collect the shims and set the valve gaps on each valve.
You will most likely find you need to source additional shims.
I've done it once and I started by measuring each shim and writing on it how thick it was. From there I started measuring the gap and fitting what shims I could and purchased new shims I needed.
